This essay explores lesser-known and taboo matters that inequitably effect women in Albania.

Description

Albania is a patriarchal country that continues to face numerous challenges regarding women’s rights, including domestic violence, forced marriage, strict gender roles, pay inequity, and more. Albania’s legal framework provides women and girls with equal rights to men, but in reality, implementation is lacking. This essay focuses on matters that are not well known or reported, or that represent long-standing societal taboos.
